Iraqi Special Forces, advised by Coalition troops, take on the Madhi Army in Sadr City. This is the one of the most intense firefights ever caught on film, and it explains why al Sadr has already begged for a truce. The overweight and/or underage dopes of the Madhi Army are no match for the increasingly lethal Iraqi forces. Prime Minister Maliki has the upper hand now.
Listen for the GAU minigun ripping away at 50 rounds per second.
I LOVE America’s military!
They’re just like the Palestinians. When they get their asses kicked, the ask for (and receive!) a “cease fire” so they can re-arm, re-group, and try again in a few months. No truce. Destroy them.
With the wife out of town, I can’t think of a better way to end the weekend. Thanks for sharing.
No treaty. Kill Sadr and ALL his “men”.
Bad thread title. Al-Sadr is never surrendering.

Watching that makes me proud of the Iraqi Army and it’s free citizen soldiers.
That was some serious whoopass our boys were serving.
The one that sounded like a big zipper.
I’ve never seen a Hummer with that many guns mounted on it. Anybody know if that is one of our creations or the Iraqis?
Welcome to FreeRepublic.
This video depicts the rush in combat and the noise—constant noise. Like a video game,except this is real life and death.
I hope they nail Al Sadr. He needs to take a dirt nap—he is an enemy of the state.
Welcome to FR.
The only thing I could think of was the old slogan:
“Peace through superior firepower.”
Exterminate them all! Exterminate!! Exterminate!!

BRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
I love the sound of a minigun!
That chicken shit is probably in Iran, prancing around with little boys or goats; watching from safety.
Oo rah ... Get some indeed! That slimy al Sadr bastard has been allowed to live too long! The longer he lives, the more innocent people die. Snuff that perp!
Now that’s a lady you want to tick off. :)
I raised a white flag just from watching the video!
al-Sadr is playing us like a violin!
He sneaks in and out to Iran at will; calls for his army to ceasefire as he pleases; asks for amnesty for his army, but not willing to have them give up their arms.
He’s playing the cat/mouse game, awaiting our withdrawal after a period of calm, awaiting our RAT presidential contenders to extracate the USA from Iraq.
Then once Iraq is weak again, he, his army, and his ties to Iran, will take over the country.
This guy needs a big time bullet right up his wazoo!
I didn’t realize al Sadr surrendered. I thought he just wanted a cease-fire so we would stop killing his guys.
Funny thing-in today’s NY Times the headline read something to the effect of “Mahdi Army runs roughshod over Iraqi troops.” Enjoy your plate of crow you communist freaks!
In the night video, note that all of the shooters have night vision, and many weapons have IR lasers and some use IR spotlights. It’s all pitch dark to the enemy, who can’t see anything but tracers, if they don’t have night vision.
Where can I check on my tax form that I want my tax money to resupply ammo?
“They’re just like the Palestinians. When they get their asses kicked, the ask for (and receive!) a “cease fire” so they can re-arm, re-group, and try again in a few months. No truce. Destroy them”
This is not the first, nor will it be the last time Sadr turns tail and runs.
The sad part is without the help of the U.S., the Iraq police and armed forces are still not up for the task. Sadr should have been exterminated years ago.
outstanding
post of the day
Praise God for righteous, unparallelled
American might and the awesome guts of our
incredible troops!
Unbelievable sounds and sights .. lock ‘n
load .. ventilate them!
Praying for God’s protection for
our guys and Iraqis with spine to
take this satanic evil OUT for good!
MUST SEE !
Sweet!
It seems the Iraqi SOP people are gaining a reputation for being damed good.
Hot and I’m not talking about the gun....
I am pretty sure we know exactly where al Sadr is every minute of his sorry life.
If he’s alive, it’s only because we want him alive (for now).
I believe those are Iraqi troops, not American troops.
Crap.
The message—don’t mess with America’s military, or our allies.
All I gotta say is ‘You come back to US, Marine. You get that job done and you come back to US. Kill the enemy, disarm the survivors ... that’s all you gotta remember. You come back to US, Marine.’ To Hell with the politicians. You get ‘er done and you come back to US, Marine, Grunt, SOLDIER! This nation ain’t worthy of you, but you are what makes this steaming pile of growing liberalism great beyond their freaks. You come back to US, Marine. Lead, don;t follow, and for sure don;t get outta the way of the damned liberals. Crush ‘em.
I did get a chance to see it. Obviously the Iraqis have looser ROE than we do. But WTH, the militias don’t have any.
I’m no soldier, but comparing this fighting to the invasion is telling.
Note the better armor, tactics, communications and fire concentration. Our soldiers have improved their abilities in nearly every way.
I, for one, am proud of them. Every one of them.
Very disciplined volleys, bump!
OOOps ... you are right ! Thank you for that, LH.
They are without US soldiers there? WOW!
Sorry to my pings ... I goofed, and I
still pray for protection for all our
troops and brave Iraqis.
I swear I heard the phrase from the WOT
I despise and detest THE most: allah akhbar.
Anyone else hear it?
